    Atomic mutagenesis in ion channels with engineered stoichiometry

    John D Lueck, Adam L Mackey ... Christopher A Ahern
    Building on previous work (Pless, 2013), we argue that side-chain 'flip out' is a key event in potassium channel C-type inactivation, and propose a new method for encoding multiple noncanonical amino acids and controlling protein stoichiometry.

    Multicolor fluorescence fluctuation spectroscopy in living cells via spectral detection

    Valentin Dunsing, Annett Petrich, Salvatore Chiantia
    Fluorescence fluctuation spectroscopy is implemented for detection of up to four molecular species, allowing users to quantify molecular interactions and stoichiometry of multicomponent complexes in live cells, in a wide range of biological processes, from membrane signaling to viral assembly.

    A single K+-binding site in the crystal structure of the gastric proton pump

    Kenta Yamamoto, Vikas Dubey ... Kazuhiro Abe
    Crystal structures provide structural rationales for the transport stoichiometry of the gastric proton pump, which suffices the energy requirement for the generation of a million-fold proton gradient across the membrane.

    The KASH5 protein involved in meiotic chromosomal movements is a novel dynein activating adaptor

    Ritvija Agrawal, John P Gillies ... Morgan E DeSantis
    KASH5 uses an EF-hand domain to directly interact with the light intermediate chain of dynein, promotes processive dynein motility, and facilitates dynein recruitment to the nuclear envelope during prophase I of meiosis.

    Conformational decoupling in acid-sensing ion channels uncovers mechanism and stoichiometry of PcTx1-mediated inhibition

    Stephanie A Heusser, Christian B Borg ... Stephan A Pless
    A peptide toxin with therapeutic potential in stroke and pain induces multiple long-lasting conformational changes in acid-sensing ion channels and affects how the channels respond to endogenous ligands.
